[ad_1] The company didn’t say where the operators came from, but they were relatively sophisticated. On top of the Russia-style attempt at social division, those responsible “frequently changed” group and page names to keep people guessing. They amassed a solid following, too, with about 175,000 accounts following one or more Pages and 4,500 following at […]

Sony finally brings PS4 Remote Play to iPhone and iPad
[ad_1] Much like its forbears, setup is as simple as updating your PS4, downloading the app and pairing the two. The on-screen controls are overlaid onto the image, and like many mobile games, will probably play better with a third-party controller. Sadly, you can’t connect a DualShock 4 to an iPhone unless you’ve jailbroken it, […]
Google’s repair center will finally take your Pixel 3
[ad_1] The repair center page still points Pixel 3 owners to physical locations. However, a Google spokesperson told Android Police in a statement that “all generations” of Pixels are covered. It’s “in the process” of updating the repair page to match. It’s arguably an overdue move when the Pixel 3 has been on the market […]
Google Play is letting gamers earn in-app items if they watch ads
[ad_1] This practice is already a common way for developers to profit when gamers don’t want to pay real cash, but as an official Google Play offering, Rewarded Products should make life easier for developers. It’s also a way for Google to compete with similar third-party tools. It’s available now in beta, and it can […]
Apple will add 1,200 jobs in Qualcomm’s hometown
[ad_1] It’s still early — Apple hasn’t even decided on a location for an eventual campus. Nearly 200 of the planned employees will be working in San Diego before the end of the year, though. While Apple hasn’t signaled just what its new San Diego hires will produce, they might focus on modems. The firm […]
Samsung Galaxy S10 teardown shows what’s behind the hole-punch display
[ad_1] The dissection also shows the stealthily integrated ultrasonic fingerprint reader, although it might be too well-integrated for DIY repair fans when you’ll likely have to replace the main display at the same time. And as clever as the hole-punch display may be, it’s relatively straightforward underneath. Not surprisingly, the S10 isn’t what you’d call […]
Meizu says its port-free Zero phone was a failed marketing stunt
[ad_1] Fans’ reaction to Wong’s statement is mostly along the lines of “you shouldn’t be so direct,” with a couple others adding that they were disappointed by what he said. Wong’s seemingly laid-back attitude also reinforces the observation that large companies have been abusing crowdfunding platforms just to get some buzz, rather than genuinely seeking […]
Samsung’s Galaxy Fold could lead to two more folding phones soon
[ad_1] If you, for some unknown reason, thought Samsung’s flexible device rollout would stop with the Galaxy Fold then we have bad news. Bloomberg cites unnamed sources saying that the company is already working on a pair of follow-up smartphones, with one shaped like a clamshell (folding vertically so that the top meets the bottom) […]
Google tests shoppable ads in image searches
[ad_1] The test is currently visible only to a “small percentage” of users who search for certain broader topics, such as home offices and abstract art. Whether or not it expands will likely depend on early results. With that said, it’s hard to see Google turning down shoppable images. If you’re already using a general […]
Google Podcasts is finally sifting through individual episodes
[ad_1] Reneau-Wedeen also vowed that other discovery features would come to Podcasts. Google had previously talked about using episode transcriptions to find keywords within episodes, and populating general Google search results with podcasts in the same way that you’d see video features. Although there’s no guarantee you’ll see those features soon, you may have more […]
